Did you know that universities are one of the best places to implement sustainable nudges? By fostering discussions on sustainable living, universities create the perfect environment to promote behavioural change among their students.
In celebration of World Environment Day, the UN System Staff College (UNSSC), the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), and Global Opportunities for Sustainable Development Goals (GO4SDGs) will host an online webinar titled "Integrating Sustainable Lifestyles into Higher Education Institutions' Programs." This webinar will discuss pathways to leverage sustainable living within university curricula. We will hear from universities that have already implemented such components in their programs and reflect on the lessons learned from their experiences.
The webinar also marks the launch of the special edition of My Sustainable Living Challenge (MSLC), which will be exclusively offered to university students. MSLC is a gamified learning journey that invites participants to reflect on lifestyle choices.
Date: June 5, 2024
Time: 14:00 to 15:00 CEST.
